Forest Restoration Act. This is part of what he calls his clear skies

How about some Democratic Presidential quotes? Particularly from Slippy
Clinton?
Make sure you interprety Clinton's "parsing" though
Slippy? That's a new one. So is interprety.
I'll give you a Clinton quote--"It's the economy, stupid."
Here's another one from Bill--"I ask you to join in a re-United States. We need to empower our people so they can take more responsibility for their own lives in a world that is ever smaller, where everyone counts. We need a new spirit of community, a sense that we are all in this together, or the American Dream will continue to wither. Our destiny is bound up with the destiny of every other American."
And this last quote from Bill seems to be about you.
"You can put wings on a pig, but you don't make it an eagle."
